Video Game General 2: Definitive/Remastered Edition

What’s a good site for downloading ROMs?

@Jarkes  
It’s the rubber banding, it isn’t noticeable on easy or medium difficulty, but it is noticeable on hard difficulty as I’m about to start right now.

@Meanlucario  
What roms are we talking about? Cause aren’t you viable for alot of trouble if you get a rom of a game in the last 10 years?

I wonder if the video games of the 1970s and start of the 1980s are still in the category of being fully copyrighted?

I found what I was looking for, and it was for a DS game that never made it to America.

I’m starting to play Euro Truck Simulator 2 again. Game is very chillaxing, but challenging if you really want it to be. I highly recommend it. But boy shit howdy can I not get used to driving on the left.

Ok, this is just freaking impressive. For context, this guy recreated the map from A Link to the Past in Dragon Quest Builders 2.

There was a discussion about adding Engine Swap system.

@ExtreVile  
Where?

One good thing about the Aladdin & Lion King movie remakes is they’re rereleasing the 16-bit games, & Gameboy games in one collection game. While it has the SNES version of Lion King, it lacks the SNES version of Aladdin, probably ‘cause it was made by Capcom, and they didn’t wanna bother negociating with them.  
Alot of gamers are fine with that, as most feel the Sega Genesis version by Virgin Games was superior, due it’s more cartoonishly animated graphics, and the fact Aladdin has a sword in it.
 
Honestly, I still like the SNES version by Capcom, I don’t get why people hate on it so much. (One Youtuber guy remarks people who prefer the SNES version are “weird.”) The lack of a sword actually feels kinda more true to the movie, as honestly Aladdin didn’t use a sword at all in the movie until the final battle. (And one thing that does look better is the SNES final battle where you actually get to fight screen-filling giant snake Jafar. So some things do look better.) Overall, it may or may not be as good, but it’s still a well made game, aside from the butthard “escape from the cave of wonders” carpet flying level.  
So it’s still kinda a bummer they couldn’t include it.

So I’ve made it to level 30 in WoW Classic. So far I’ve been enjoying it a lot. Getting to 60 is going to take a good while now.

Meanwhile Virgin got killed by EA.
 
EA killer of dreams.

@Beau Skunky
 
Also, something interesting I learned is that the reason why the “I Just Can’t Wait To Be King” level is such bullshit compared to the rest of the game despite it only being the second level was because Disney mandated this so that kids couldn’t beat the game from just renting it.

@Jarkes  
So Dick Move Disney?

@Meanlucario
 
Something like that, yes.

@Jarkes  
Ironically, I actually did beat it as a kid, lol.  
But yeah it was a pain, but a fun level.
 
@igotnopicks  
Really? Geeze, there’s a whole graveyeard of game developers/companies, and game series they dug…  
Heck, I’m still upset they bought off Maxis, and because they screwed up their own new Sim City game, they then killed off the series.  
Heck, EA even made Nintendo remove the SNES version off Virtual Console, and it’s unlikely they’ll ever let them use it. (Nintendo does own the character Dr. Wright so he can still appear in SSB & Link’s Awakening.)

@Mikey  
Damn.

@Marx  
I watch a video by a Youtuber named “Canadian Guy, Eh”, he made a video on the topic, I’ll link the video to you if you want to see it for yourself.

Seems like there’s already reports of the Switch Lite suffering drifting issues.

@Mikey  
Throwback, huh?

@The Equestrian Zodiac  
Already

@The Equestrian Zodiac  
Really? Nintendo supposedly fixed that problem with newer Joycon models.

@Beau Skunky  
Apparently not for the Lite.
